Adams National Eagle Scout Service Project of the Year Award for the Greater Los Angeles Area Council's Eagle Scout Class of 2017.

Alexander Brey is the 2017 GLAAC Adams National Eagle Scout Service Project of the Year Award winner. His Eagle Scout Project was selected by the Greater Los Angeles Area Council as the best example of what an Eagle Scout Service Project should exemplify, and how it was planned and executed.

Alexander’s Eagle Project was the installation of seven bear-proof storage lockers at the “Little Jimmy” remote backpacker camping area in the Angeles National Forest San Gabriel Mountains National Monument, a very popular backpacking destination for many GLAAC Troops and Crews.

Within the Greater Los Angeles Area Council, each Eagle Project averages 200 hours. The cost to execute each project on average is $2500 in goods, either purchased by the Scout from his own fundraising efforts or from donated materials from generous local vendors.

We are proud to share that the total value provided to our communities from the service hours of 2017 Eagle Scout Service Projects is over $1,225,000. Likewise, the total cost of the projects donated to our communities totals over $1,395,000. The overall value to communities in the Greater Los Angeles Area Council exceeds $2,620,000. BELCHER FOUNDATION EAGLE SCOUT SCHOLARSHIP The Donald D. and M. Marie Belcher Charitable Foundation has established a special scholarship fund for Eagle Scouts who plan to attend a four year college or university following high school graduation. The funding is for three 2-year $7,000 college scholarships awarded each year in the amount of $3,500 the first year, renewable for a second year, with at least 24 college credits completed and a grade point average (GPA) of 2.5 or above. To qualify, applicants must meet the following criteria: • Have attained the rank of Eagle Scout in the Greater Los Angeles Area Council of Boy Scouts of America and be currently registered in Scouting. • Be a graduating high school senior entering college in the year for which the scholarship is applied. • Have achieved a high school un-weighted cumulative GPA at or above 3.0. • Have demonstrated leadership ability in Scouting and a strong record of participation in activities outside of Scouting. • Have need of financial assistance and provide a statement clearly stating why he believes he needs financial aid, signed by the applicant and countersigned by a parent. • Plan to attend any recognized four-year college or university. • Show evidence of the desire, commitment and capacity to complete an undergraduate college degree. • Provide one signed recommendation letter from a volunteer or professional Scout leader who personally knows the applicant. • Applicants who have served as summer camp counselors/staff receive special consideration in the selection process. The scholarship funds can be used for tuition, room, board and books for as long as a recipient remains a full-time student during the life of the scholarship. The funds are paid directly to the college/university that the recipient attends. Recipients and their families are invited to attend the Eagle Recognition Banquet to be recognized.

Terry L. Fossum has been active in Scouting more on than off for over 45 years.

As an adult, he’s given back to Scouting by serving in numerous positions on the unit, district and council level. He is a former Scoutmaster and currently the Vice President for Program for the Inland Northwest Council.

He’s an Eagle Scout, and has received the Distinguished Scouting Service Award, District Award of Merit, and Silver Beaver.

Terry L. Fossum As an officer in the United States Air Force, his military honors include Officer of the Year for Fairchild Air Force Base, the Distinguished Graduate from Squadron Officers’ School, and Humanitarian of the Year for all of the Strategic Air Command.

His business career led him to develop sales teams around the globe, where he became a multimillion dollar earner.

He has authored four highly-acclaimed books in the self-improvement realm, and performs business training and keynote speaking across the U.S. and in different parts of the world.

Hobbies include martial arts where he’s a Black Belt, and adventures in places like the Arctic Circle, Africa, South America and others. His philanthropic projects literally span the globe.

His latest book, “Summer Camp to Survival Show Winner,” tells the story of how Scouting affected Terry’s life every step of the way, and is available here tonight. Most recently, he’s represented all of Boy Scouts of America winning “Kicking and Screaming,” a Survival Reality show pitting 10 survival experts against each other in a jungle, while teamed up with a complete novice.

If there was someone you wish was here today to hear Terry’s story, don’t worry! It’s all in his book “Summer Camp to Survival Show Winner” available at the back of the room. And if you liked Terry’s speaking style, his book on Public Speaking is available as well. He’s even volunteered to stick around and sign his book and take pictures. Copies of his books have been provided for all 2017 Eagle Scouts. Outstanding Eagle Scout Awards

Hanson of the San Francisco Council to organize an association that would hold the interests of Eagle Scouts, uphold the dignity of the Eagle Award, and provide a base for continuing leadership in the Scouting movement. That night it was decided to organize an association of Eagle Scouts devoted to service—the Knights of Dunamis. Dunamis was formed to promote Eagle Scouting. The founders felt that young men seeking a meaningful purpose in life fulfilled many of the same requirements as the Knights of Old. Thus, knighthood and the greatest knight of all, Sir Galahad, became the foundation of Dunamis. The Knight's Code, which stressed honor to his country, the preparation to defend it from any enemy, and the commitment of service to his fellow man, was the obligation of a knight. At its annual meeting at Fort Collins, Colo., in August 1970, the National Chapter of the Knights of Dunamis Inc. empowered its officers to take action to dissolve the corporation and consummate a merger with the Boy Scouts of America. The National Eagle Scout Association was launched with the first NESA committee meeting held in conjunction with the National Council meeting in Los Angeles on May 19, 1972. The purpose of NESA has remained the same: to identify Eagle Scouts and to provide a manpower resource for local councils. The primary objective of local chapters is to guide Eagle Scouts of all ages into service within the local council. All BSA councils have members enrolled in the National Eagle Scout Association. NESA is young men searching for dynamic and challenging leadership roles. NESA is older Eagle Scouts desiring to use their efforts and influence toward forming the kind of young men America needs for leadership. The objective of NESA is to serve—to serve Eagle Scouts and through them, the entire movement of Scouting. Only those who have been granted the Eagle Scout Award by the Boy Scouts of America may hold membership in the National Eagle Scout Association. Eagle Scouts We Want You!

An upright boy with a heart of gold He can take the heat and he can stand the cold. An adventurous sort of a rough, tough lad He’d share with anyone, all that he had. He’s cheerful and good, and he’s filled with fun. He always helps till the work is done. No loafer is he, this young man with skill And his disciplined heart and mind and will. He camps and cooks, he hikes and climbs He can sing a song or make verse that rhymes. You can trust an Eagle with all your own You can count on him when the chips are down. He’s a splendid youth with a lifetime goal He’s the type of boy who’s in control A rare breed is this young Eagle Scout Who’s as good on the inside as the out. So honor the Eagle and model his deeds He’ll plow rich soil and plant good seeds. There’s no better young man in this great land. Than an Eagle Scout with a helping hand.
